Annual Bake-Off and Club Fundraiser

Back by popular demand, Run OC is hosting another Dessert / Bake-Off! Show off your favorite dessert recipe for chance to win an amazing prize.

We are asking for a $5 suggested donation per person, which will help pay for Meetup fees and hosting more awesome events!

If you’re not competing, please bring a potluck style food item (or beverage) to share.

Seating may be limited, so feel free to bring a fold out chair.

Your friends and family are welcome to join in on this fun event.

Date: April 25th, 2026
Time: 5-8 pm (if you're competing, arrive at 4:30pm)
Location: Justin's spacious backyard in Santa Ana. (Exact Address will be posted at a later date.)

A few more things:

• We are expecting 50+ people, so if you are competing, make sure you portion out your dessert for everyone.
• Everyone who attends will be a judge. We'll hand out 1 voting ticket per person.
• If you are bringing a dessert, please discreetly take it into the kitchen when you arrive (please arrive by 4:30pm before everyone else shows up). We want the competitor's desserts to be anonymous. We'll place a number in front of each one for voting.
• We will have a lot of really great raffle prizes. Your $5 donation will get you 5 raffle tickets. You can buy more raffle tickets for $1 each.
• We'll supply water, but if you want to bring other beverages, feel free to (including adult beverages).

See you there!
